Your local bearing warehouse. All bearing numbers are cross referenced. The quality is as good or better, at cheaper prices.

for most of that we use either the moose kits or the pivot works kits.

for the lonestar parts contact lonstar, they have rebuild kits for their bearing carriers. do you have lsr front hubs or stock? idk if lsr had different bearings for the hubs but if they are stock i would run OEM or pivot works for the front hub bearings. steering stem i wouldnt even replace unless it isnt smooth anymore, then just get OEM. stay away from junk ebay bearings.

ive ran ebay bearings alot, rear ends, hubs, stems and they usually last as long if not longer than oem bearings, guess it all depends on how much it gets ridden, infact i just recieved a set of ebay rear end bearings for my 04.

X2 this is the best way to do it for a fraction of the cost. For example the stem bearing can be bought for like 2.25 at my local wearhouse. I think its around 10 from oem

You can get the two front hub bearings for about $4.00 at a warehouse.
